I'm worried I won't be able to get a new IUD

They are talking about banning plan b and since my IUD can be used as emergency contraception I'm worried it will be banned also. I already have an appointment made but it's not for 3 more months. I hate having to worry about stuff like this.

Makes me glad I'm done having children. I'm also terrified for my daughters and what they're going to have to go through in the years to come.

I’m terrified.
If I get pregnant, I’ll die.
I don’t have the ability anymore to keep a placenta attached and I’ve already had two C-section, my doctors told me not to get pregnant again.
I can’t afford a hysterectomy because the insurance company says it’s still an optional procedure and I live too far away from a hospital to get there in time if I do get pregnant and my placenta detaches.
I can’t believe I’m even saying this now because plan b was an option for me, but now if I get pregnant I’ll die.

For all women who may find themselves living in a state that bans Plan B (God I wish I didn't have to say that in 2022) - birth control can be used as a less effective form of Plan B and was used before Plan B was invented. Talk to your doctor or a doctor you trust to find out how that can be done.

Your post is about the possible unavailability of Plan B, she responded with alternative to Plan B.

I remember this back in the day before Plan B came out.

I think that means I am old. Lol

I hate that they’re talking about banning plan B and possibly all contraceptives.
I know quite a few women that have shared that they are now planning to get appointments for an IUD. I want to get an IUD as other methods of birth control don’t work best for me.
However I’m 14 weeks pregnant so an IUD will not be an option for me until January 2023.
What if by then it’s no longer an option for me? Or, like you, I’m forced to wait months upon months?

Were you as fanatical in spending time and money in supporting Hillary Clinton, as Trump's white evangelical christian supporters were in supporting him and Pence?

The time to be terrified was back then.
